SNK dropped a bombshell at EVO 2024, announcing not one, but TWO new games in the making – an Art of Fighting title and a Samurai Shodown action RPG!
“You’re going to see South Town in its full 70s glory brawling again.” – Joshua Weatherford, SNK
The company also teased that “they have a lot of surprises in store” for Samurai Shodown.
Meanwhile, Yū Shimoda, composer extraordinaire at SNK, revealed that the studio posted an “urgent recruitment” notice for team members to work on both games!
The Art of Fighting series made its debut in arcades in 1992, followed by two more titles in 1994 and 1996. The Samurai Shodown series launched in 1993, with a first game that still holds a special place in many gamers’ hearts.
